How do I get to the Kasbah, is there a tram or bus? Would it be a good place to rent an apartment for a month?

The golden tulip hotel is nearby. you could walk from there. Within 15 minutes walking distance of the Kasbah there are many hotels. There are also very fine hotels in the Medina across the street from the Kasbah. The streetcar is quite a modern wonder that glides around the city and stops directly outside the Kasbah. However for your convenience there are a glut of taxis that offer multiple levels of service. Some only take 3 or 4 people and are quite inexpensive. The larger ones that tend to be Mercedes are a bit more but are roomier and will iake 1 or two passengers. A driver will also make himself available to you for a longer term if you negotiate a price. Then you can call when you are ready to move. Almost like a personal car service. All this being said, if you have an opportunity to live inside the Kasbah, take it. Just make sure the place will provide all the things you feel are necessary to keep you comfortable during your stay and that there no hidden costs. If yo are living inside the Kasbah you will have a short hilly walk to the gate in order to get transportation to get anywhere else. Markets and provisions will be across the street in the Medina. This spring i was there for a few weeks and found the experience to be thrilling.
